I think if you choose the right type of thread the edge could be dressy. I auditioned different edge finishes before I settled on this one. I may try using the wholly nylon in both loopers next time so that the edge is covered more.

I really like what you did and also really like the dress. Do you think the edging gives it a more casual look?
